The Armed Forces of North Korea: Asia at War No. 58

by Stijn Mitzer & Joost Oliemans.

Softcover (8.3×11.7 inches). 76 pages. 2025.

Subtitle: Volume 2: The Korean People’s Army Air and Anti-Air Force

The series continues with the second volume (although Volume 1 was divided into two separate books) covering the current North Korean military’s Air Force and AA force.

As with the other volumes, it’s an overview. The aircraft, helicopters, drones, missiles, and guns receive a mix of operational deployment and technological analysis. Training, industrial production, and strategic objectives weave in and out of the prose and are all supplemented with a considerable number of photos and illustrations.

The book contains 10 black and white photos, 134 color photos, four color maps, 16 aircraft color camouflage profiles, four helicopter color camouflage profiles, and three drone color camouflage profiles.

It’s a nice compilation of non-classified information about the North Korean air and AAA forces.

Enjoyed it.
